PHP - Creating an Array in PHP

You can create an array using the array() constructor. When calling array(), you can also initialize the array with pairs of keys and values. Here is a PHP script on how to use array():

<?php 
print("Empty array:\n");
$emptyArray = array();
print_r($emptyArray);
print("\n");

print("Array with default keys:\n");
$indexedArray = array("PHP", "Perl", "Java");
print_r($indexedArray);
print("\n");

print("Array with specified keys:\n");
$mappedArray = array("Zero"=>"PHP", "One"=>"Perl", "Two"=>"Java");
print_r($mappedArray);
print("\n");
?>

This script will print:

Empty array:
Array
(
)

Array with default keys:
Array
(
    [0] => PHP
    [1] => Perl
    [2] => Java
)

Array with specified keys:
Array
(
    [Zero] => PHP
    [One] => Perl
    [Two] => Java
)
